As an electron moves through a region of space, its speed decreases from 6.03 × 106 m/s to 2.45 × 106 m/s. the electric force is

the only force acting on the electron. (a) did the electron move to a higher potential or a lower potential? (b) across what potential difference did the electron travel?

Answer:

a) It moved to a lower potential

b) ΔФ = - 86.28 Volt

Explanation:

The energy of an charged particle and the electric potential are related by the potential al kinetic energies:

\frac{\text{mv}^2}{2} = e\phi

If we consider an electron:

m = 9.10938*10^-31 Kilogram

e = 1.60218*10^-19 Coulomb

And the potential diference may be calculed by:

\Delta \phi =\frac{m \left(v_f^2-v_i^2\right)}{2 e}

Replacing all the values we get:

ΔФ = - 86.28 (Kilogram Meter^2)/(Coulomb Second^2) = -86.28 Volts

masha68 [24]

Answer: B

Explanation:

Newton's first law it's law of inertia.

An object at rest will remain at rest (or an object in motion in a straight line at a constant velocity will remain that way) unless it is acted by an unbalanced force.

In A for the ball to slow down and stop, an external force (like friction with air or the floor) needs to be taken in consideration.

In B we can see how we need to make a force on the wagon to make it move.

In C we have an other Newton 's law, force equals mass times acceleration (2nd law)

In D we can see how it does not move because the forces on the box are balanced.

An astronomer whose secret hobby is riding merry-go-rounds has dedicated his career to finding the stars that rotate the most rapidly. But the stars are all very far and hence he can not identify the starts that spins more rapidly.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The things in the world rotates. the earth, sun star everything will be spinning. There is a star named Achenar. this is the start that spins at a faster rate. It is the biggest star that stays at the position 10. Its mass is 7 times greater than the sun's mass.The shining of the star can be measured by luminosity. It is the measure of the brightness of the star.

The energy that is given by a star in a second of time is the luminosity of the star. All stars are present in the different distances form the surface of the earth. but when we look from the earth or even when when go at certain altitude we can find all stars to be located at the same distance. hence if we need to find the star that spins more rapidly, then the star spectral lines can be observed. The stars that rotates will be having the wide lines in the spectra.

You throw a bowling ball down an alley with speed v_0v ​0 ​​ , and initially it slides without rolling. After a little while fri
telo118 [61]

Answer:

final speed after pure rolling is given as R\omega = \frac{5}{7}v_0

Explanation:

As we know that point of contact at ground is taken as reference then there is no external torque about this point on the ball

So we can use angular momentum conservation about this point

L_i = L_f

L_i = mv_0R

L_f = \frac{7}{5}mR^2\omega

so we have

mv_0R = \frac{7}{5}mR^2\omega

R\omega = \frac{5}{7}v_0

So final speed after pure rolling is given as R\omega = \frac{5}{7}v_0
